Thermal leptogenesis explains the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry of the universe in terms of neutrino masses, consistent with neutrino oscillation experiments. We present a full quantum mechanical calculation of the generated lepton asymmetry based o ...
Leptogenesis with heavy neutrino flavours is discussed within a density matrix formalism. We write the density matrix equation, describing the generation of the matter-antimatter asymmetry, for an arbitrary choice of the right-handed (RH) neutrino masses. ...
I will discuss several possible choices for the mass scale M of the Majorana leptons, complementing the Standard Model to describe neutrino masses and oscillations. Depending on M, they can or cannot accommodate eV neutrino anomalies, lead to baryogenesis, ...
Multimegaton scale in under-ice and underwater detectors of atmospheric neutrinos with a few GeV energy threshold (PINGU, ORCA) open up new possibilities in the determination of neutrino properties, and in particular the neutrino mass hierarchy. With a den ...
The possibility of improving the limit on the branching fraction of the lepton flavor violating decay tau (+/-) -> A mu(+/-)A mu(+/-)A mu(a") at LHCb is discussed. It is shown that a simple, cut-based analysis is sufficient to improve the upper limit on th ...

The mass composition of high energy cosmic rays depends on their production, acceleration, and propagation. The study of cosmic ray composition can therefore reveal hints of the origin of these particles. At the South Pole, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory ...
We present a measurement of the branching fraction and time-dependent CP violation parameters in B-0 -> a(1)(+/-)(1260)pi(-/+) decays. The results are obtained from the final data sample containing 772 x 10(6) B (B) over bar pairs collected at the Gamma(4S ...
Within a supersymmetric (SUSY) type-I seesaw framework with flavor-blind universal boundary conditions, we study the consequences of requiring that the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe be explained by either thermal or non-thermal leptogenesis. In ...
In the past decade, one of the major challenges of particle physics has been to gain an in-depth understanding of the role of quark flavor. In this time frame, measurements and the theoretical interpretation of their results have advanced tremendously. A m ...
